This is a class for the young artist. The class is focusing on all aspects of art. We will train the eye how to see as it related to direction of line, curves, form, shape, contrast, etc. We will learn how to look at something and draw it exactly. All projects will be finished in pencil, color pencil, or watercolor. Once the basics are learned, we will focus on design and composition. Students are to bring pictures they want to draw. All art supplies for this class are provided.

Fun with Alcohol Inks, Dawn Gerardot
Dawn Gerardot, B-A
Tuesdays 1:00-4:00
This is a unique fluid painting technique full of creative options. The colors dry very quickly due to the evaporation of the alcohol. However, even dried ink can be reactive if additional alcohol or fresh ink is added. In this way, the painting can be changed or altered again & again. Once dried, our paintings will be enhanced with marker detail. This technique lends itself to card making. It’s fast paced and a lot of fun!
